[issue28949] Unable to launch Python interpreter

I am using the python.org rc1 installer, confirmed to match the public md5 sum:

$ md5 ~/Downloads/python-3.6.0rc1-macosx10.6.pkg 
MD5 (/Users/jaraco/Downloads/python-3.6.0rc1-macosx10.6.pkg) = 404c390ae27f067aaab34f168cf913eb

I downloaded ClamXav and had it scan my entire system. It found nothing of interest, only two Windows exploits, one in a driver from Asus and another in an attachment to an e-mail that was already filed as junk. It also found two "Eicar-Test-Signature" hits in old IRC logs.

So if my Mac has a virus, it's new enough that it's not being detected by ClamXav.

I'm going to continue to investigate and see if I can detect what event triggers the removal of that file.
